Quantum computers are the proposed centerpieces of a revolutionary, 21st century quantum information technology. Ideal for undergraduate and graduate courses in modern quantum physics, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics: From Photons to Quantum Computers takes the reader into the fascinating world of quantum mechanics and continues on an in-depth study of quantum information and quantum computing, including an entire chapter on the future of quantum technology. This accessible text with modern applications focuses on what is “quantum” about quantum mechanics; topics discussed include the EPR paradox, entanglement, teleportation, Bell’s Theorem, quantum computing, and code-breaking with quantum computers.

【簡介】 This book provides a comprehensive introduction to quantum mechanics from the ground up. It is designed to be completely self-contained and assumes very little knowledge or mathematical background on the part of students as it takes them through the major topics of quantum mechanics. Designed to be appropriate for students across a wide range of abilities and backgrounds, this book will be particularly helpful for students who might lack some of the mathematical background typically assumed in an undergraduate quantum mechanics course. The book includes three "math interludes" covering such topics as complex numbers, linear operators, vector spaces, and matrix manipulation. The book also discusses some interesting modern applications of quantum mechanics: magnetic resonance imaging and quantum computing, and it concludes with an introduction to relativistic quantum theory. This second edition includes expanded and improved coverage of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, the use of ladder operators to solve the harmonic oscillator, as well as the treatment of the Lamb shift. 【目錄】 The Origins of Quantum Mechanics Math Interlude A: Complex Numbers and Linear Operators The Schrödinger Equation Solutions of the One-Dimensional Time-Independent Schrödinger Equation Math Interlude B: Linear Algebra Solutions of the Three-Dimensional Time-Independent Schrödinger Equation Math Interlude C: Matrices, Dirac Notation, and the Dirac Delta Function Spin Angular Momentum Time-Independent Perturbation Theory The Variational Principle Time-Dependent Perturbation Theory Scattering Theory Multiparticle Schrödinger Equation Modern Applications of Quantum Mechanics Relativistic Quantum Mechanics
